Consumer Description

PLASTIC PLENUM WARPS ON MY 3800 V6 IN 1995 PONTIAC TRANSPORT EVERY 35,000 MILES. COOLANT LEAKAGE AND POSSIBLE COOLANT IN OIL CAUSING SEVERE DAMAGE, THIS IS THE SECOND TIME, 1ST AT 35,000 2ND AT 73,000 MILES. GM CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE CENTER WILL NOT COVER PARTS OR LABOR ON ANY COMPLAINTS OVER 36,000 MILES. THIS IS HAPPENING ON MULTYPLE VEHICLES WITH SOME NEWER MODELS AT 7,000 TO 20,000 MILES. IF DRIVEN TO EXTREME AND ENGINE FREEZES, COULD CAUSE HANDLING PROBLEMS. GM CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE DENIED ANY COVERAGE FOR ME WITH ONLY 73,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND THIS HAPPENING TWICE TO ME. RESULTS ARE $650 UNLESS THERE ARE OTHER PROBLEMS WITH THE ENGINE IN RESULT OF THE COOLANT LEAKAGE.
